TRAFFIC PLAN PROPOSAL! The results of the traffic poll indicate that
the vast majority of neighbors are in favor of the proposed plan as
submitted. We wish to thank everyone for their prompt response to the
survey, and especially those who took the time to write letters and
comments. While we did not acknowledge each one individually► they
were all discussed and taken into consideration.
On Monday evening, May 10, the Natoma Manors committee and the Day
Heights Committee met with representatives of the City of Miami to
present their respective traffic plan proposals. They were somewhat
similar in that they both prevent outside crisscross traffic through
the neighborhood. In fairness to both neighborhoods it was decided
that each plan be given a chance, with the Bay Heights plan to be tried
first. After a period of ninety days the Natoma Manors plan will be
tried. Then after another period of ninety days the homeowners in both
neighborhoods will vote on the plan which they prefer. We all will be
inconvenienced by the change in our daily routine, but both neighbor-
hoods will benefit in the end.
You are familiar with the Natoma Manors plan; the Bay Heights plan
is as follows:
1. Samana Drive will be closed (their entrance opposite Vizcaya)
2. Alatka Street will be closed at South Bayshore Drive
3. Halissee Street will be one-way to South Bayshore,
beginning at Micanopy
4. Halissee Street will be closed at U.S. 1
Both proposals will be presented to the City Commission for their study
and approval as they see fit. We will be informed by the City when to
expect action.
WALL AT ALATKA AND U.S. I.: After discussing this project with several
contractors, we finally located the man who constructed the Natoma and
Taluga walls at U.S. 1. nukes Concrete, Inc. has give►us a proposal of
$5,170.00, considerably less than the others, and we plan to take im-
mediate steps to get this project underway. We presently have $4,056.85
in our wall fund; another $1,113.3.5 is needed as soon as possible.
Homeowners throughout the neighborhood have made donations in amounts
ranging from $15.00 to $500.00. If you have not made a donation please
consider doing so at this time. Or if you have made a small donation
you may wish to make an additional one. Several people who made pledges
at the meeting when this project was approved have not yet sent -in their
checks. Now that we know exactly how much is needed we will appreciate
receiving your checks. In the event that we collect more money than is
needed for the wall, it will go toward the landscaping which is planned,
PLEASE HELP US GET THIS PROJECT COMPLETED BY MAILING YOUR CHECK TO THE i
ADDRESS BELOW. THANKS TO EACH OF YOU.
